Epistola de insulis de nouo repertis
A 1493 Latin letter by Christopher Columbus reporting his voyage to the newly found islands, printed in Paris by Guy Marchant for a scholarly and clerical readership. The first picture is a blackletter title line, the second a printed page with a woodcut of armed men in a landscape, and the third a bookplate of a coat of arms with a scroll reading Gaudeo; a designer might draw on the dense black type, the marginal woodcut scene, and the heraldic bookplate.
